You need to do this way:

WebView webView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView);

webView.setOnLongClickListener(new View.OnLongClickListener() {
    @Override
    public boolean onLongClick(View v) {
          return true;
      }
    });
webView.setLongClickable(false);

// Below line prevent vibration on Long click
webView.setHapticFeedbackEnabled(false);

Hope this will help you.
